Light curtains protect in hazardous areas
Cedes offers two monitoring systems which are amongst the smallest in their class in the world.
The combined use of these two safety components opens new possibilities for machine and equipment designers, both for new concepts and for backfitting of existing machines.
The compact dimensions of the SafeCIS3 controller (22.5 x 111 x 125 mm) and the Safe400 safety light curtain (cross-section 15 x 20mm) enable them to be integrated in such a way that the ergonomics and ease of use of the machine are not effected at all.
The SafeCIS3 is not limited to just monitoring the status of the Safe400 light curtains.
Other safety components can also be connected and monitored, like an emergency stop button or interlock switch.
The SafeCIS3 comes standard with two high-capacity PNP outputs.
If the application requires the use of a relay, this can be simply snapped on as an extension module, and the monitoring of external relays is also possible.
Various relay extension modules and bus extension modules enable direct integration into the most diverse types of master controllers.
Using an optical interface, the safety controller can be set-up and adjusted incredibly quickly to the required parameters, such as muting or stroke operation.
